When a root canal has not fully healed, or when the inner tooth needs specialist-level attention, retreatment by an endodontist is the most reliable way to save it.
Endodontics is the specialist field of dentistry focused on the inside of the tooth — the pulp, root canals, and surrounding bone. At Dental Radicle, Dr. Priya provides specialist endodontic retreatment and complex case management for patients whose previous root canal treatment has failed, whose pain has persisted, or whose anatomy makes standard treatment difficult. The goal is always to save the natural tooth.
What Is It?
What does an endodontist do?
An endodontist specialises in diagnosing and treating the most complex inner-tooth conditions — particularly re-treatment of failed root canals, persistent or recurring infections, calcified canals, unusual root anatomy, and referred tooth pain that has not responded to routine care. If you have already had a root canal but the pain has returned, a specialist retreatment can often resolve the problem and avoid extraction.
